I have marched before with the Aggies to the closest polling place. It is a mile away from the campus. I am not an alumna —just a resident of Greensboro.

Jess Rivera over in Wilson County is running one of the most audacious campaigns this year in the North Carolina state legislature, and more folks should listen to what she's saying. Jess Rivera's got a fight on her hands - but she's used to that. We've got her back.

A large majority of North Carolina voters, reaching across political lines, supports raising the state minimum wage - but despite being proposed over and over again in our state legislature, it never passes because the big corporate lobby blocks it.

NEW: In a win for North Carolina voters, a slate of anti-voting measures is unlikely to take effect before the midterms after the public raised enough objections to trigger a review by state lawmakers. The restrictions would have made it easier to throw out voters' ballots.

Public objections pause new voting restrictions in North Carolina – at least for now
The voting restrictions approved by the Republican-controlled Rules Review Commission include tightening ID requirements to register to vote and stricter mail voting standards.
